Kubernetes cluster manifests

Introduction

This is the Kubernetes manifests of services running on k-space.ee domains:

Most endpoints are protected by OIDC autentication or Authelia SSO middleware.

Cluster access

General discussion is happening in the #kube Slack channel.

Bootstrapping access For bootstrap access obtain `/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf` from one of the master nodes and place it under `~/.kube/config` on your machine.

Once Authelia is working, OIDC access for others can be enabled with running following on Kubernetes masters:

Technology mapping

Our self-hosted Kubernetes stack compared to AWS based deployments:

Hipster startup Self-hosted hackerspace Purpose
AWS ALB Traefik Reverse proxy also known as ingress controller in Kubernetes jargon
AWS AMP Prometheus Operator Monitoring and alerting
AWS CloudTrail ECK Operator Log aggregation
AWS DocumentDB MongoDB Community Operator Highly available NoSQL database
AWS EBS Longhorn Block storage for arbitrary applications needing persistent storage
AWS EC2 Proxmox Virtualization layer
AWS ECR Harbor Docker registry
AWS EKS kubeadm Provision Kubernetes master nodes
AWS NLB MetalLB L2/L3 level load balancing
AWS RDS for MySQL MySQL Operator Provision highly available relational databases
AWS Route53 Bind and RFC2136 DNS records and Let's Encrypt DNS validation
AWS S3 Minio Operator Highly available object storage
AWS VPC Calico Overlay network
Dex Authelia ACL mapping and OIDC provider which integrates with GitHub/Samba
GitHub Actions Drone Build Docker images
GitHub Gitea Source code management, issue tracking
GitHub OAuth2 Samba (Active Directory compatible) Source of truth for authentication and authorization
Gmail Wildduck E-mail

External dependencies running as classic virtual machines:

  • Samba as Authelia's source of truth
  • Bind as DNS server

Adding applications

Deploy applications via ArgoCD

We use Treafik with Authelia for Ingress. Applications where possible and where applicable should use Remote-User authentication. This prevents application exposure on public Internet. Otherwise use OpenID Connect for authentication, see Argo itself as an example how that is done.

See kspace-camtiler/ingress.yml for commented Ingress example.

Note that we do not use IngressRoute objects because they don't support external-dns out of the box. Do NOT add nginx annotations, we use Traefik. Do NOT manually add DNS records, they are added by external-dns. Do NOT manually create Certificate objects, these should be handled by tls: section in Ingress.

Cluster formation

Create Ubuntu 20.04 VM-s on Proxmox with local storage.

After machines have booted up and you can reach them via SSH:

# Enable required kernel modules
cat > /etc/modules << EOF

On master:

kubeadm init --token-ttl=120m --pod-network-cidr=10.244.0.0/16 --control-plane-endpoint "master.kube.k-space.ee:6443" --upload-certs --apiserver-cert-extra-sans master.kube.k-space.ee --node-name master1.kube.k-space.ee

For the kubeadm join command specify FQDN via --node-name $(hostname -f).

After forming the cluster add taints:

for j in $(seq 1 9); do
  kubectl label nodes worker${j}.kube.k-space.ee node-role.kubernetes.io/worker=''
done

for j in $(seq 1 3); do
  kubectl taint nodes mon${j}.kube.k-space.ee dedicated=monitoring:NoSchedule
  kubectl label nodes mon${j}.kube.k-space.ee dedicated=monitoring
done

for j in $(seq 1 4); do
  kubectl taint nodes storage${j}.kube.k-space.ee dedicated=storage:NoSchedule
  kubectl label nodes storage${j}.kube.k-space.ee dedicated=storage
done

On Raspberry Pi you need to take additonal steps:

  • Manually enable cgroups by appending cgroup_memory=1 cgroup_enable=memory to /boot/cmdline.txt,
  • Disable swap with swapoff -a; apt-get purge -y dphys-swapfile
  • For mounting Longhorn volumes on Rasbian install open-iscsi

For arm64 nodes add suitable taint to prevent scheduling non-multiarch images on them:

kubectl taint nodes worker9.kube.k-space.ee arch=arm64:NoSchedule
